"Actually, I, I'm here to see Lord Weixinzhai today!"

Faced with dozens of children of the same age who were more noble than him, Chojiro had the courage to say in front of them,

"I ask to see Lord Wei Xinsai!"

Of course, his words, which were already very courageous to him, were immediately reduced to a new joke in front of these children of his age but much more noble than him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Especially the arrogant kid in the lead, not only the one who took the lead and started laughing, but also the one who laughed the loudest.

"Hahaha! It's been a long time since I've heard such a funny joke from a retainer! ”

He threw his head back and laughed. Although he is still a child, he has childlike cruelty in his eyes.

Perhaps, Chojiro, who is standing in front of him now, is like a small insect frog that usually inadvertently steps to death in his eyes. There was no right or wrong in his mind, he just went along with his nature.

"Do you think that Lord Shinsai will casually come to meet someone like you? Get out of here! ”

Since this arrogant child took the lead, the surrounding children have gradually gathered around. Some children are just watching the fun; Some of the children were curious about Chojiro who jumped into the house; There were also some children who followed the arrogant children in the lead, clamoring to kick Chojiro out.

Although the situation in the residence seems to be a little troublesome, Xiuguang and Xiuzong are still on the tree at this time and have not made a move. It's better to say that Xiuguang doesn't plan to make a move at all.

In fact, Hidemune has always wanted to jump down impulsively to help Gang Changjiro, but he was stopped by Hidemitsu.

"It's Chojiro's own business, and he's going to try to figure it out on his own. Even if we jumped, we couldn't help anything. ”

This is Xiuguang's decision.

Of course, the current Chojiro doesn't have the idea of asking Hidemitsu for help.

"I'm not going out. Unless I see Lord Weixinsai! ”

Although Chojiro was scared, he thought to himself that since he had finally come in after a lot of hard work, he must see only Shinsai. Even if it was very likely that my request to study here would fail, at least I met Lord Weixinsai.

In short, with this fanatical mood of "I must meet Lord Weishinsai", Chojiro chose to reply to these noble children who he usually did not dare to look up at at all, and insisted on his actions.

"I want to see Lord Wei Xinzhai! And also to study here! ”

His words caused another burst of laughter.

"Hey, did you hear me? That person wants to come and study with us......"

"He's not a concubine, is he? So what qualifications do you have to come and study? ”

"Yes, yes, but Lord Shinsai is not so easy to see!"

"And he jumped from a tree...... Hahaha! What a mess! ”

In fact, these ridicule and sighing voices are okay. However, a few children have already grasped the wooden knives used for morning exercises, and they are a little eager to try.

"If you don't leave! We'll let you go personally! ”

As if they wanted to try their new weapon, they raised their wooden knives at Chojiro, who had sneaked in, and smiled innocently and cruelly.

Chojiro looked at the children around him who were gradually moving closer to him with wooden knives, a little panicked, and he didn't know what to do next, and his mind was blank.

And Xiuguang and Xiuzong, who were watching from the tree, were still standing still, and there was no sign of jumping down to help.

Chojiro fell into the first "big crisis" since he was born.

……

……

Let's turn our attention to the interior of the Kajigikan's mansion.

Shimazu Yui Shinsai, whose hair has gone gray, is in the study at this time, sorting out the various books that are a little messy that the children are looking through, and then selecting the content that these children want to learn today.

Although his appearance gives people the impression of a fierce general type of character who only knows martial arts and does not practice literary talents, in fact, only Shinsai's attainments in literature are not low. At the age when he was still named Tadahei, he already liked to read.

But Shinsai's appearance is an unkind "Onishimazu" appearance, but in fact, he is a person who loves his wife and children very much. One of the reasons why they agreed to educate the next generation of the Shimazu family in their own residence after living in seclusion is not only for the development of the Shimazu family, but also because they like children.

However, when he was educating his children, he never showed that he liked children. So much so that children often cry and run back to their parents to cry about the horror of "Onishimazu".

What he looked like when he was educating his children was to describe it in the words of Hidemitsu's time...... Sparta?

Well...... In short, the image of Wei Xinzhai in the eyes of the children is that of a very scary and strict old man.

Of course, Shinsai himself thinks that being strict can teach the future pillars of the Shimazu family. So he has always been very enthusiastic about education.

Like right now, he's sorting through the books and picking out what the kids want to learn after their morning workout. These were planned and implemented by Wei Xinzhai himself.

Often, retainers told him that he could leave these things to other retainers and let him relax on his own, after all, he was already in seclusion. But Xinzhai did not agree.

In a word...... Does Xinzhai like children or hate children...... This question has become an unsolved mystery in the eyes of many in the Shimazu family......

While Wei Xinzhai was sorting out the books and putting them back on the table, he suddenly heard a commotion on the flat ground outside the mansion where the children used for their morning exercises.

"Really! Is it another quarrel?! ”

Wei Xinzhai frowned, didn't look out the window, and was still sorting out the books. He seemed to think it was a quarrel between the children. After all, these things are not once or twice. When these children of noble birth come together, there will always be these contradictions, big and small.

However, this kind of contradiction usually stops quickly, so Wei Xinzhai usually doesn't care too much.

But today...... It's been a bit of a long fight.

The commotion outside the window has not subsided, but has become bigger and bigger. If you listen to the sound, you will find that more and more people are participating.

Wei Xinzhai felt that something was wrong, he slowly stood up, put down the book in his hand, and then looked out the window, staring at a certain direction for a long time.

After looking at it for a while, Wei Xinzhai's eyes narrowed, and then ignored the attendant's inquiry, turned around and walked out of the study, walking towards the flat land in the living room.
